    Hi,

    I'm trying to setup a web page where, when a user clicks an image link the flash animation on the page changes without reloading the page. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks.

    The website is www.theraynes.com - I would like to set it up such that when a menu selection is clicked, a new animation plays.

    Here is the code to call the Flash:

    <OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
    codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"
    WIDTH="400" HEIGHT="390" id="myMovieName"><PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="main.swf"><PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high><PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF><EMBED src="main.swf" quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="400" HEIGHT="390"
    NAME="myMovieName" ALIGN="" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED></OBJECT>

    Thanks!

    first of all - you should use js or another alternative to embed the flash. (try SwfObject). In your flash, you can communicate back and forth with JS. So you could literally pass it the new .swf to load in the current .swf which woudl make it completely dyanmic.
